    Hiking

    Sturdy shoes are an advantage as there is an increased risk of slipping on wet leaves and greasy ground in autumn / winter.

    Hiking

    The former Diebach / Calbach quarry is a special biotope. The spherical basalt is particularly beautiful to see here.
    Further information can be obtained from Lothar Keil in the Sand Rose Museum in Büdingen. museen.de/sandrosen-museum-buedingen.html


    The access is on a beautiful hiking trail - good sturdy footwear is a must!

    Those who like this geotope should also visit the Eckartshausen quarry and the Wild Stone in Büdingen and the White Stone near Breitenborn / MKK.
